Oh Great stuff!!!  Love to see pics like this.

I had my boy (7) with me who insisted on being my helper and that i shouldnt do anything. Way to go son me thinks, nice to know you love yer dad.
Then he said i owed him $10 for the help - apparently its called pocket money.

He's been spending far too much time with his mum

Nick - did you take the girls to one of the Melbourne Dealers for the day ?

Nice "shop out" pictures... All you need is a "nifti in one hand and a rag in the other"  :D

Yep Nino, they're now fully qualified "Factory Trained" techs!  &&
